Love it! Random question. Did you need a deputy inspector when you had the saddles welded to the steel posts? Any special certification required during city inspection? Just comparing to our steel posts

Thanks . The yellow and green ones are Liriope 'Silvery Sunproof'. We were originally going to use Japanese sedge (carex morowii variegeta) but couldn't find it locally. I really like the silvery sun proof, they have a really cool purple flower.

We didn't need a special inspection for the saddles, but we had to have the engineering documents for the permit and had to use a specific type of saddle. Our inspector just looked at them and said, looks good.

Fun times, sounds very similar. Enjoy digging - it's those last couple feet with the post hole digger that just burned me out. My shovel was about as deep as the hole! It was like leg day at the gym, squats, squats and more squats

They eat up concrete too! I think we used 3.5 yards in our 6 holes, maybe more.

Good luck setting them, it was pretty easy once we got the hang of it. Hopefully that step by step comes in handy.
